Purple

Sometimes I do things together with the artist on artwanted.
Paricia Griffin Brett had put up a picture
and told me all about this kind of anemone,
that dances on the wind.
Her's did not bloom anymore
and because we did not know the name I searched into the internet.
Finaly I thought I found them
and send half the bulbs to her.
I planted the bulbs with that special name:
Anemone Lord Luitenant.
When I looked outside this morning
the first two of them were dancing on the wind

My garden filled with flowers
is the purple of my heart.
It gives that celebration,
everyday my morning starts.

Ben, this is gorgeous!! Love the color purple, my favorite. By the way, Patricia Griffin Brett is a good friend of mine. Oh, what a small world it is. /She & I live in the same town and keep in touch with each other often.

Splendid colors and details, the petals looks like velvet. Excellent photo Ben !!

Artist Reply: When I had seen them I fell a little in love with them and have been searching through all of Holland to find a seller. I am also not that good photographer, but when I get the time and enough efforts there sure is one between them :)

Artist Reply: I think we have many friends in the world included you Marie-Claire. We all fit in our artistique frame of life. That makes AW somehow special to everybody who wants to express her or himself here. We bring art and flowers... to our friends

Artist Reply: Thank you Kate :) Yes I liked the color too and although it is a special color, there were many others, who did not fit the color I searched for.
